    摘要: A method for synchronizing files and an electronic device using the same are described. The method includes receiving a first instruction; executing the application installed on the electronic device according to the first instruction, a first file among a plurality of files for the application converts into a second state from the first state during a process for executing the application; writing the first file with the second state into a network storage by a first file system, in order to enable the application installed on another electronic device to be executed based on the first file with the second state in the network storage. An application progress may be shared and synchronized conveniently without a user's interaction or participation by writing the first file with the converted state into the network storage.

    摘要: A synchronization adapter is coupled to the application that does not support synchronization and generates the necessary synchronization metadata for all data in the application that is to be synchronized. The synchronization adapter then combines the metadata to the actual data to be synchronized to form a synchronization feed. The synchronization feed is stored in an internal cache (or data store) which is internal to the application, or an external cache (or data store), which is external to the application, or it can be stored in both caches. The synchronization adapter also intermittently determines whether the application data has changed, thus warranting a change in its metadata, or whether a synchronization operation is warranted to synchronization operation is warranted to synchronize the data with data in another application. In either case, the synchronization adapter makes the changes to the data, or performs a synchronization operation.

    摘要: The system and method described herein may provide a virtualized replication and high availability environment. In particular, a virtualized production server may run one or more virtual machines in one or more child partitions and have a replication and high availability engine installed in a parent partition. The replication and high availability engine may automatically discover the virtual machines running in the child partitions and automatically synchronize all files associated with the virtual machines to a virtualized replica server. Furthermore, the replication and high availability engine may continuously replicate subsequent changes to the files associated with the virtual machines running in the child partitions to the virtualized replica server, which may then create on-demand virtual machines from the synchronized and replicated files to handle switchover, failover, switchback, and fallback events associated with the virtualized production server or the virtual machines running in the child partitions associated therewith.
